In Octavius's many arms, Lilly learns of friendship, loyalty, and family.

Wheeler's Sea Change is an exhilarating tale of adventure, resilience, and selflessness in the name of friendship.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Sea Dragon Heir
by Storm Constantinein A WORLD BEYOND TIME THE palindrake family ruled the rocky kingdom of Caradore, their right ordained by their allegiance to the power of the Sea. But war came to them, and defeat at the hands of the king of Fire. He had coveted this high, feral land, and now it was his. Caradore, and its guardian family, the Palindrakes, had once belonged to the sea. Their flags were adorned with the ocean's brutal, yet fragile, monsters: sea dragons, proud, attenuated, and coral-frail. If the mournful cries of their shattered ghosts echoed from the ocean now, no one heard them. The flags had fallen and were burned. The elements had clashed and fire reigned triumphant. The Palindrakes were defeated, but not lost. For the lady of Caradore protected the secret rituals of the family's bond to the sea. And in time the power of the Sea Dragons "would rise again. And now, five lifetimes later, the Palindrake heir, Valraven V, has a twin sister, a woman who embodies their inheritance of power in a way that no wife ever could. Valraven is obedient to his oath to serve the Magravandian Emperor in war and peace, and Pharinet is resigned to her duty as a woman to marry. But the tidal power in their blood draws them to each other, into a forbidden passion that could sweep away bonds of fire placed upon the oceanic magic of the sea.

Sea Monsters: A Novel
by Chloe AridjisWinner of the 2020 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction, this intoxicating story of a teenage girl who trades her a middle–class upbringing for a quest for meaning in 1980s Mexico is “a surreal, captivating tale about the power of a youthful imagination, the lure of teenage transgression, and its inevitable disappointments” (Los Angeles Review of Books)One autumn afternoon in Mexico City, seventeen–year–old Luisa does not return home from school. Instead, she boards a bus to the Pacific coast with Tomás, a boy she barely knows. He seems to represent everything her life is lacking―recklessness, impulse, independence.Tomás may also help Luisa fulfill an unusual obsession: she wants to track down a traveling troupe of Ukrainian dwarfs. According to newspaper reports, the dwarfs recently escaped a Soviet circus touring Mexico. The imagined fates of these performers fill Luisa’s surreal dreams as she settles in a beach community in Oaxaca. Surrounded by hippies, nudists, beachcombers, and eccentric storytellers, Luisa searches for someone, anyone, who will “promise, no matter what, to remain a mystery.” It is a quest more easily envisioned than accomplished. As she wanders the shoreline and visits the local bar, Luisa begins to disappear dangerously into the lives of strangers on Zipolite, the “Beach of the Dead.”Meanwhile, her father has set out to find his missing daughter. A mesmeric portrait of transgression and disenchantment unfolds. Set to a pulsing soundtrack of Joy Division, Nick Cave, and Siouxsie and the Banshees, Sea Monsters is a brilliantly playful and supple novel about the moments and mysteries that shape us."Aridjis is deft at conjuring the teenage swooniness that apprehends meaning below every surface. Like Sebald’s or Cusk’s, her haunted writing patrols its own omissions . . . The figure of the shipwreck looms large for Aridjis. It becomes a useful lens through which to see this book, which is self–contained, inscrutable, and weirdly captivating, like a salvaged object that wants to return to the sea." ―Katy Waldman, The New Yorker
